VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO CONGRATULATE SIR JAMES PAUL MCCARTNEY ON HIS ICONIC AND HISTORIC CAREER AS A ROCK LEGEND AND TO WELCOME HIM TO THE PALMETTO STATE AS HE PERFORMS IN THE CAPITAL CITY DURING HIS OUT THERE TOUR.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that rock legend Paul McCartney will play a concert in Columbia at the Colonial Life Arena as part of his Out There tour on June 25, 2015; and
Whereas, more than twenty years ago, he performed in the capital city at Williams-Brice Stadium on May 7, 1993, as part of The New World Tour 1993; and
Whereas, a member of the iconic rock band The Beatles, Paul McCartney also has enjoyed enormous success through his solo work and with another group, Wings, and he has collaborated with many such artists as Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder and most recently had a hit called "FourFiveSeconds" with Kanye West and Rihanna; and
Whereas, this English singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, and composer has achieved sixty gold discs during his fifty-eight year career and has sold over one hundred million albums and one hundred million singles with the Beatles and as a solo artist; and
Whereas, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of The Beatles in 1988 and as a solo artist in 1999, Mr. McCartney has been honored with twenty-one Grammy Awards and has written or co-written thirty-two songs that have reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100; and
Whereas, after his promoters scheduled his concert at the Firefly Music Festival in Dover, Delaware, the decision was made to add some more shows. Columbia organizers grasped the opportunity when Columbia was the right distance from his other venues and Colonial Life Arena was available; and
Whereas, the Columbia concert is the only scheduled stop for the rock star in the Southeast, which promises to be a music feast for the many McCartney fans in the area lucky enough to have acquired a ticket to the sold-out event; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the visit of Paul McCartney to the capital city and congratulate him on his phenomenal career as a pop singer for almost six decades . Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, congratulate Sir James Paul McCartney on his iconic and historic career as a rock legend and welcome him to the Palmetto State as he performs in the capital city during his Out There tour.
